Affection Makes You Weak
She snickered in my face
I told her all the things that I felt and she laughed me right out the door
I can still hear her laughing at me
Even when I'm alone, I can hear her cackling like a witch
I want to get out
Get in my car at night and drive an endless road to somewhere but nowhere
Affection is a disease
Don't succumb to it, it will wipe you out!
It's for weak fools
I've moved on
I told her all the things that I felt and she laughed me right out the door
I can still hear her laughing at me
Even when I'm alone, I can hear her cackling like a witch
I want to get out
Get in my car at night and drive an endless road to somewhere but nowhere
Affection is a disease
Don't succumb to it, it will wipe you out!
It's for weak fools
I've moved on

THE LONELY ONE
The lonely person often walks unnoticed
with unsteady step and eyes unfocused,
failing to keep pace within the crowd.
An approach of reluctance to everything,
like a crutch under the arm that stings,
maintaining balance amidst turbulence.
Seeing, yet, did not recognize nor care,
as if that person was as normal as you,
beneath the shrouded cloak they wear.
Loneliness can feed on pure isolation,
depression its friend, little is noticed,
there's signals, a lack of communication.
Loneliness has its very own...
with unsteady step and eyes unfocused,
failing to keep pace within the crowd.
An approach of reluctance to everything,
like a crutch under the arm that stings,
maintaining balance amidst turbulence.

as if that person was as normal as you,
beneath the shrouded cloak they wear.
Loneliness can feed on pure isolation,

Loneliness has its very own...

Peanut butter and spermicidal jelly sandwich
She makes me feel impotent
Whenever I'm around her I feel like I don't exist
She makes me mad
I try & find the words but I can't
I want to lash out but I can't move
She makes me feel like I'm made out of wood
She turns my brain into wax
She pushes me around
I don't know how to say no
Every moment I spend with her, I lose a part of myself
I want to get out, but I can't see my life without her
I think I know what needs to be done...

The Bible, a savior and a broken heart!
On I wish I knew just what to say ,
To help u ease your pain.
Spending too much time alone
Can make a man insane.
I know that you are broken,
And I know just how u feel ...
I know that it will take some time,
Before u start to heal...
I've spent lots of hours,
All alone and torn apart.
I still have scars that bleed sometimes
Deep inside my heart.
I didn't want to meet you..
Didn't want to take a chance.
Wasn't looking for a new friend
Or even fake romance.
I seldom make much effort,
Cuz I don't...

Forgive Me
Roses are not supposed to burn.
I didn't know what I’m supposed to do.
Your desire was so hot;
You had me so confused.
I didn’t mean the words I said
That's not what I intended to do.
Love me
But don't leave me
Listen to what I am saying to you
Dont give that desire
To someone new
I won't play any more games
Hear what I’m telling you
Don't take our fire
I just don't know what to do
Please, please please
See that I am begging you
I'll give you the pleasure.
And I’ll take the pain ...

Blissful Illiteracy
I had twelve years old, and dreams so young
Dreamed To be a future poet as life was so long
I had twenty two, and dreams even younger
Yearned for poems written when getting older
I had thirty three, dreams started to land
They started to slow down, when ascend
Then forty four, dreams stopped to soar
Shoulder weighed down by the loads i bore
Now past fifty, dreams are only winged words
Lazing like those birds hovering above the herds
And then, i envy those care free sleepy...

Remains
Don't come to me with promises of eternal love,
not even with looks that promise hell.
I already know this road, this path
where every step is a thorn.
Don't enchant me with soft words
nor promises of new dances.
I already know that at the end of the song,
all that remains is loneliness.
Don't talk to me about burning passion
and not from a heart that lies.
I've seen this movie, I already know the ending,
where love is just a gale.
Don't promise me the brightness of the stars
and don't fill me with beautiful...

Unreciprocated
Your first word lingers in my mind,
Your self has no clear kin or kind,
Your entirety is all I'd ever wish to find,
For all I'd wish to find is beyond my reach,
But when you came I was forced to teach,
Myself to learn and not to preach,
An urge not to teach but to beseech,
Adages of time and tide,
Voyages narrow and wide,
I claimed to pay them no heed, I merely lied,
Her smallest words they burned my brain,
Word's she's forgotten, send me insane,
Her lips and skin cause so much pain,
For I'll never touch what will never grace my...

Why is it only white westerners that don't seem to know what a woman is?
By Stanley Collymore
It's a biological reality to state that
only women menstruate and it’s
regardless of how they either
describe, or specifically set about simply
identifying themselves! Unquestionably,
it's rabid madness to basically get sued
for crucially making a statement of fact.
Menstruation: simply applicable only to
women, is quite undoubtedly related to
ovulation, which significantly, basically
means, that ovaries are really naturally
required for this rather unquestionably
biological process, that...

DARK and TWISTED
Sometimes your honesty feels like violent blows
For I still carry our hidden secrets nobody knows
My eyes have opened, but my soul's departed
You left me stranded after just getting started
Somewhere along the way your feelings shifted
Leaving me often feeling so very dark and twisted
You were a trickster filled with so very many lies
To many when's and way far too many why's
Mixed in also with how come's and also who's
Leaving me dumbfounded without many clues
I know I'm not very special nor am I very gifted
I am...

Thru years of laughter, and even tears.
Thru all the pain and happy cheers!!
Thru bullshit fights, and cold cold shoulders.
To arguments cuz you acted older.
Sly remarks, and evil eyes.
Yet choked back sobs from each goodbye.
Slamming doors, breaking glass..
Funny jokes and smoking grass.
Talking shit, fights and screams..
To hanging out and sharing dreams.
Thru childhood trauma, we got got thru somehow ..
We stuck together, at least until now,
It shouldn't matter the mood were in..
Tomorrow will come and we can try...
